Improve Your Car Speakers with a Few Simple Changes

If you’re having problems with the sound quality in your car, it might be relatively straightforward to fix. If you still have factory-installed speakers, or if the speakers are blowing, then it’s highly likely that you need to buy new speakers. However, if you have done this, or you know that your speakers are good quality, and you’re still having issues, try our simple remedies outlined below.

1.Cars experience a lot of reverberation. What this means is that sound waves bounce around the car, hitting into each other, and causing mild distortion. While it is mild, it can make a lot of difference to the sound – especially if you're someone with a discerning ear.

To deal with this, you need to install sound dampening materials. Place it on the floor, in foot wells under the carpet, in the door panels, and behind the columns. This can make a huge amount of difference, and it’s relatively cheap.

2.Buy a bass blocker. If you have in car speakers that feature a subwoofer, it could be that low frequency sounds – which should be going to the subwoofer – aren't being fed correctly, and instead are also going to the woofer.



The woofer can’t produce the very low frequency sounds, and it interprets these signals in a distorted manner; it’s sort of the same as screaming as hard as you can, but in an Incredible Hulk way, your voice can’t handle it and cracks. With speakers, the woofers can’t handle it and they crack, which means they break.

A bass blocker prevents the low frequency sounds from reaching the woofer, and therefore stops the damage. Instead, the bass is diverted to the sub woofer, where it belongs, and where the speaker can handle it.

3.Buy a crossover unit and play around with the settings. The cross over is similar in function to a bass blocker, but rather than blocking frequencies, it simply orders them and then feeds them to the correct speakers. For instance, it sorts your music in to low, medium, and high frequencies, and channels them respectively to the sub woofer, woofer, and tweeters. This ensures that each speaker is producing the correct sounds, which then improves sound quality and prevents damaging the speakers.
